I got a new heat bulb for my little ones! And a lamp dimmer to help regulate it, which is really fun to play with...
But, I went out to wait for it to heat up, and I came back with the little ones sleeping and... the thermometer reading 145?! Whaaat? I'm not sure if it broke because the chicks were RIGHT underneath the lamp and sleeping, and it didn't feel that hot when I opened the brooder. But even if it was, that's wayyy too high. D:
I don't know if I unintentionally gave my chirpers brain damage because the temp got so high. Will they be okay?
